[Keith K]

Rock of Ages
There is a rock, a special rock, a magical rock,
a musical rock that few have found.
Dangers are present along The Way
for seekers of this singular rock,
this wonderful rock, this rock of many rumors.
They must pass through the perilous wood and venture under stone.
They should tarry not for silver and gold, lest they fall by the sharpness of bronze and iron and steel.
To find the rock, the magical rock, the musical rock that few have found.

Edit: you must name the rock to solve the riddle.

I'm a present given
From a King to a Lord,
Bright like the stars
That shines in the sea.

star of elendil?

[Radagast The Brown]

It's not the Star of Elendil, no.

Clue... It was a present from an Elvish King to a Dwarven Lord.

Ondolinde?

[Keith K]

You are very impressive QAL! Especially since you answered the riddle with the exact name I was looking for....
Ondolinde, the Rock of the Music of Water...
For those of you not as "cultured" as QAL the wood, stone, bronze, iron, silver, gold, and steel refer to the path "The Way" as it was known and it's seven gates. Good job QAL!

"cultured" hardley. I just researched it through the web. Is that allowed? I'm new to the riddling game so I don't know if there are any rules. Let me know if I unknowingly cheated.

[Keith K]

I say answer the riddles any way you can. I am curious as to what search criteria you used to solve my riddle though?

process of elimination, and you gave very good key hints in your riddle.

[Keith K]

Here's a little riddle for y'all....

The mightiest tower of Middle-Earth upon which there hung a nail.

Well, I know of at least one very capable riddler whom I led down a path to "the stone of erech" which was part of the misdirection I had intended. It didn't get past you though.

Heehee... guilty!

Sometimes I just PM my answer to Keith... if I think I know what it is right away - just to give others a crack at it (had a couple last week where I caught them right after he posted - so I've tried this a few times).
